Will this be just a one-off 2 days, or a regular thing?
It'll be a one-off two-day trip, in effect my introduction to the basics.
I don't think there are any EASA-approved schools in Tampa, Florida but even so, I'm hoping to gain some early experience so I wouldn't be that bothered about it not counting towards the minimum 45 hours needed in the UK, which probably will end up being ~55 hours anyway.
